CHAPTER FOUR:
Groaning Duo sat up in bed rubbing his blinking eyes. He looked over at the clock. It was four.
Not late enough yet for him to go outside and do anything. Sighing he walked over to one of Relena's
many tented windows in her house and looked out. He was not yet used to the hours that a vampire
required. "Looking out at it and longing over it wont make you human again." Relena said softly
behind him. Walking up to her lover she wrapped her arms around his waist and nuzzled her head
against his back. "Believe me, I've tried."
Turning around Duo looked at her. "You have?" Relena nodded and looked past him at the outside
world. "How did you get over it?" He asked quietly. Turning his body back to the window he
pressed his right hand against the glass. As if he was reaching out. Reaching out and trying to
grasp what he could not.
"You learn to accept it. You can't do anything about it. After a while you realize and truly
understand that. So you just learn to accept it." Yawning loudly Relena rubbed her sleepy eyes.
"I'm not used to getting up early." Duo smiled at the irony of it. What he considered sleeping
in she considered early. He pulled his eyes and hand away from the window and followed Relena
into the kitchen. "Eggs?" She asked reaching into the fridge. Duo nodded yes.
After a few moments of silence, Duo watching Relena, and Relena cooking their breakfast, he finally
spoke. "What was it like?" Looking up from her scrambled eggs Relena gave him a quizzed look.
"When you got turned into a vampire I mean." Duo said making himself clear. Relena nodded in
understanding and turned her attention back to her eggs. "Were you scared?"
"Very." Relena said putting some toast in the toaster and then going back to stir the scrambled eggs.
"I just wanted to kill myself right then and there. But at the same time didn't want to die.
I was transformed when I was seventeen." She looked at Duo and gave him a faraway smile. "That's
why I always get carded when I go buy beer. I still look like a kid."
Duo was quiet for a moment. "You're thirty seven?" He shook his head and laughed a bit. "I had
sex with a thirty seven year old women. That should make me feel sick. But it doesn't." He sighed.
"Probably because you have the body of a seventeen year old."
Relena laughed a bit. "I'm always going to have a body of a seventeen year old. I used my drivers
license until I was thirty. After that they believed it to be a fake and wouldn't give me beer,
cigarettes, or let me in clubs anymore." Relena frowned. "Being a vampire has it's ups and downs
too you know." She sighed. "In a few years I'll just have to disappear from here. Go someplace
where they don't know me. Let them think I'm actually eighteen or something and just starting out
in life. Instead of a thirty seven year old women who should be wanted for being a serial killer."
Retrieving the toast Relena shook her head. "Oh well, that's just the way the blood drips I guess."
"Why did you spare me?" Duo asked shortly after Relena retrieved the toast from being burned in the
toaster. Looking up at him she gave a wry smile. "I thought I already told you that Duo.
You asked me to, so I did."
"No." Came his quiet voice. "You kill tons of people every year. And I am the first one you've
turned into a Vampire. You must have heard dozens, upon dozens of people beg for their lives.
Why, Relena, did you spare me?" His voice sounded edgy. Calmly buttering the bread Relena pushed
his question to the side. "Do you want butter or jam on you toast?"
"Relena." Duo's voice warned. He sighed when she just stared at him, butter knife in hand. "Jam.
Raspberry." His voice said in defeat. Smiling Relena turned back to her breakfast and put jam on
Duo's bread.
Taking the two plates she set them down at the table. One in front of Duo and the other one in
front of her chair that sat opposite of his. "Milk?" She asked getting up and going to the fridge.
Duo growled.
"That's not funny Relena. I'm hungry for something else. Not milk." Relena nodded understanding.
"Yes, milk please." He said, again, defeated by her stare. And just like before he was rewarded
with a smile.
"Do you want to come out tonight Duo? You don't even have to kill anyone. I'll do that, and you
can just suck the blood I get from it. Then I'll kill another for my fill." She said sitting
across from Duo and handing him his glass of milk. "What do you say?"
"What is there to do so late at night?" Duo questioned as he dug into his food. "Sit around and
be stupid?" Relena rolled her eyes and gave him a look. "No silly." She sighed exasperated.
"We can go to the clubs. There's some great ones in the back streets of town that I'm familiar
with. There is the outside movie theater we could go to. That used to be my favorite place to go
to get blood about ten years ago." Taking a gulp Relena paused. "Mel likes to go there. She
says that there is nothing better then to have a nice neck full of blood to suck while watching
a movie."
Duo grunted in disgust. "The club. I'd rather go to the club." Relena smiled. "What?"
He said after a few moments of her not tearing her gaze away from him.
"Nothing." She said slightly shaking her head. "Oh, by the way." Relena took a bite of her
eggs. "You'll be meeting my boyfriend tonight."
Choking on his food Duo started heaving and spatting eggs all over the table. Taking a big
gulp of milk he swallowed hard. His eyes all watery from the unexpected lack of hair. "Your
what!?!" He finally shouted out when he had room to breath. "I thought you were single! Or
else I wouldn't have been having sex with you all week! Ah, damnit! Fuck! This is not good."
Duo voice panicked and the rest of his body seemed to agree. Bringing his hands in his face he
started muttering about how bad this is and how Relena should have told him that she was taken.
Laughing Relena patted Duo on the head from across the small table. "Don't sweat it Duo.
I wont tell him that we had sex. Just that we are friends. And I am showing you around that's
all." Duo glared at her between his fingertips. "How could you do this to me Relena?" He spat.
"I'm not the type of guy to take another man's women to bed." Relena rolled her eyes and finished
up her eggs. "He wont find out Duo. Besides, I did it because you're sexy, I was horney, and my
boyfriend sucks in the sack. It's no big deal really. I've been doing this type of thing for
almost eighteen years."
Duo gave a nervous laugh. "Sure, no big deal. That's what you say. What's your boyfriend's
name any ways?"
"Heero." Relena said getting up from the table and rinsing off her plate. "Heero Yuy."
Duo's face went white. "Oh shit."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
^-^" I was just wondering on how I was going to get Heero in here...hehe..*evil grin* This is
going to be interesting...heh, very interesting. Just to let you all know. I'm making this up
as I go along. I don't really have anything set that I want to do. I have a very vague rough
idea. But that's still getting worked on. So basically there is nothing set in stone as of now.
But hey, review and you just might give me some totally cool ideas. I'll tell you what though.
If you give me an idea in a review and I end up using it, I'll be sure to give you all the credit
for the idea. ^_~" Review now folks!
